Abstract
Vertebrate [chicken and pig heart] and invertebrate [horseshoe crab, snail, abalone, and lobster] L-lactate dehydrogenases (L-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.27) are effectively bound to oxamate-diaminohexyl-Sepharose; several D-lactate dehydrogenases (D-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.28) do not bind to the same Sepharose. One explanation for these findings is that the enzymes'' substrate is oriented in a reversed manner in the active center of the D- and L-lactate dehydrogenases.
